It’s official.
Hamburger + Bacon = Amazing.
In case mentioning those two ingredients isn’t enough to convince you to try this recipe, you should know that we usually stick with traditional burgers, not gourmet burgers you get for about $15 at restaurants. Our general rule of thumb is if you have good meat, you don’t need all of those extra ingredients that could cover up the beef flavor.
However, I think we may have found an exception to our rule.
This BBQ Bacon Hamburger is an incredibly juicy hamburger that’s full of flavor.
Give it a try, and don’t be surprised if it becomes one of your new favorites!
